What is Hackers' Pub?

"소프트웨어 엔지니어링은 죽어가는 게 아니다. 가격이 다시 매겨지고 있다. 2025년에 크게 들린 이야기는 해고였다. 2026년에 조용히 진행되는 이야기는 수요 증가다. Indeed의 2026년 2월 수치에 따르면 소프트웨어 엔지니어 채용 공고는 2025년 중반 바닥 이후 약 15% 상승했다. Citadel도 같은 신호를 요약했다: 소프트웨어 엔지니어 채용 공고가 전년 대비 11% 증가했다. 그렇다면 실제로 무슨 일이 일어나고 있는 걸까? 업계는 줄어드는 게 아니라 전문화되고 있다."

Perhaps there are other factors at play?

Quantum simulators mimic systems, directly encoding problems into the structure of the system. Unlike more flexible quantum computers, we can make and use them right now. Startup Silicon Quantum Computing has created a silicon quantum simulator that simulates how a material can change from an insulator to a metal. https://spectrum.ieee.org/quantum-twins?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=fedica-Mastodon-Daily-Pipeline

To make matters worse derivative markets were created from those shitposts and they in turn were repackaged as top tier shitposts but were in reality even worse than the original sub-prime toots. Many people following the market had no idea that they were not genuine and not backed by actual shitposts. As if this weren't bad enough others retained options to recieve future shitposts.

Kate Riga makes an important point here about the U.S. men's Olympic hockey team and their interaction with Trump: "That is what you're scared of as a woman all the time. That men who are nice to your face, and who take photos with you, and nominally support you, the second you're out of the room are making fun of you and undermining you."

In terms of alternatives to X, it's interesting to compare German and British universities. The former seems to prefer the Fediverse, while the latter prefers BlueSky.

How are things going in this regard with universities and research institutes in other European countries?

Here's a bit of good news for you, an important one too IMHO. Both Glovo and Deliveroo are now under judicial control in Italy, as both companies have been found brutally exploiting their gig workers and paying wages well below the poverty line. Under judicial administration the companies will be likely forced to hire their workers with regular contracts and working hours.

This is it, right here, right now. The whole game.

All his voter suppression, gerrymandering, and other election cheating has led to this.

If Trump takes over elections, it’s game over for democracy in the United States.

If the people aren’t willing to shut down the country over this, it’s over.

Back in December, we had a large outage at work. The internal investigation took a while and the internal report was roughly 40 pages long. For the public, we managed to try and condense it to a much shorter format that we think can still offer useful insights to other organizations:
